Knighthawk Foundry, operated by Dean Knighthawk, is a post-Calamity technology business, and one of the only ones remaining that operate autonomously of any Epic's regime. Its headquarters are located in the Shewbrent Castle in West Virginia,[1] though it has been known to make temporary portable bases.[citation needed]
The Knighthawk Foundry supplied the Reckoners, Newcago, and others with mobile phones that could work underground and other technologies. Steelheart brokered a deal with Knighthawk to supply the citizens of Newcago with mobiles, but residents of other cities often did not have the resources to have mobiles.[2] Knighthawk is generally regarded as a safe, trustworthy mobile network,[3] but in fact, Dean is able to read and write any message on his phones.[4]
The Knighthawk Foundry also experimented and developed other Epic-based technologies, using Epic DNA harvested by the Reckoners. One of the devices they developed is the spyril.[5]
